History

sashaice [31]4 years ago

Because it was a Muslim Empire bet on Conquest of all non-Muslim lands (especially Christian Europe), it was hostile to trade and/or exploration by Christian Kingdoms and/or principalities. Before the Ottomans, Europe used the Silk Road and the Spice Trade Routes that went through the lands that were later conquered by the Ottomans (Asia Minor) who then blocked all trade and exploration ventures into Asia and/or the Middle East.

This forced European powers to seek alternate routes for commerce and exploration in Asia. The Portuguese were the first, they circumnavigated and explored the African coastline all the way to the southernmost part of Africa and finally made it to India. This allowed them to renew and control the lucrative Spice Trade and further map the unknown world. Spain was engaged in a hegemonic strife with Portugal and thanks to Christopher Columbus, who was seeking an alternate; shorter route to India sailed through the Atlantic and discovered the New World.

Farm mechanization resulted in a. an increase in farm production. b. a decline in the number of eastern farms. c. the end of bon
choli [55]

The correct answer is A. Farm mechanization resulted in an increase in farm production.

The mechanization of agriculture describes the development process mainly of cereal cropping and livestock farming, during which production and economic methods radically changed between the end of the 19th and the second half of the 20th century. This development has had a tremendous impact on the labor market and on the population development of rural and urban areas, as the number of inhabitants in the rural villages has steadily increased, while at the same time it has been rapidly increasing in the cities. As a result of mechanization, the total number of human and animal workers in agriculture has fallen dramatically, because even draft animals have hardly been used since the mid-20th century.  It also increased the production in the farms, since the use of machinery instead of human work allowed the production of more goods per working days.

What is one effect of the unequal distribution of resources?
Phantasy [73]

Best answer:  B. Trade networks develop to exchange resources.

When one nation or region has resources that others do not, it can use those resources as a trade commodity to exchange with other nations.  For instance, areas that have rich oil resources will export oil to countries that don't have oil reserves as a natural resource.  In turn, those countries may have other commodities that they can exchange -- agricultural resources from countries with fertile agricultural land, for instance.
